hello kitty phone

the telephone of my dreams. the phone i've been obsessing for since i first saw it in a sanrio store when i was 6 or 7 years old. i couldn't afford it then coz it was way beyond the savings i had in my piggy bank. i would ask its price everytime i was in the store, in case, by some miracle, it was on sale and i could well afford it. obviously, that didn't happen.

and today, after searching for it in the internet for about 7 years (that's when i started going online), i found it again. my heart started palpitating while i was waiting for the whole page to upload. and when i got into the price part, my heart almost failed! the bidding price at ebay started at $499.00! now, how in the world could i afford that?!

even my mom, whom i could usually charm, wouldn't buy it for that price! i doubt my sister would buy it too even if we both share a facination for hello kitty.

aargghhh! times like these, i regret that i'm still not earning. if only i hadn't pursued going to med school, i would have been earning my own money. and i would have afforded that expensive phone. haayyy...

and now, that gorgeous telephone would stay in my dreams...until i win the lotto jackpot and become an instant millionaire...
